What is IQC in ManufApp and why is it important?

IQC (Incoming Quality Check) is a quality control step performed on materials received from vendors before they are accepted into inventory. In ManufApp, this process is tightly integrated into the GRN (Goods Receipt Note) workflow.

Why it's important:

• Prevents defective or non-compliant materials from entering production.
  
  

• Ensures vendor accountability by recording rejection reasons.
  
  

• Supports traceability and compliance with audit-ready records.
  
  

• Helps reduce production downtime, scrap, and customer complaints.
  
  

By mandating IQC before inwarding, ManufApp enforces quality at the entry point itself—building reliability into your supply chain.
